The Flow Cytometry Core at the Cornell Arthritis and Musculoskeletal
Disease Center is seeking a Research Flow Cytometry Technician. The Core is
a federally-supported research facility that allows the members of our
biomedical research community at The Hospital for Special Surgery/Cornell
University Medical College access to state of the art flow cytometry
instrumentation, analysis software and technical expertise. The research
interests of our users group are primarily related to the study of the
immune system and autoimmune disorders. Our facility is currently equipped
with a Becton-Dickinson FACScan (which is available for direct use by our
investigators), a FACS Vantage (equipped with 3 simultaneous laser
excitation beams and cell sorting capabilities) and three Mac-based data
analysis work stations. A 4-color fixed alignment FACSCaliber (also for
direct use by the investigator) will be added to the Core in the next
several weeks.
The Core Technician will be responsible for the operation, calibration,
scheduling, data management, and routine maintenance of the Core Facility's
instruments. In addition, the Core technician's responsibilities will
include assistance and education of investigators in basic flow techniques
and participation in the development of new techniques. An undergraduate
degree in a scientific or engineering discipline and previous experience in
flow cytometry are required. Experience with the FACS Vantage is preferred
but not necessary.
